    Maybe just too much to overcome mentally with the beaning, and physically with the whiffs. Hope I’m wrong.

    Because of the super young ages of Made-Pratt-Pena-Payne-Bitonti, I’ll even include Quero in there, the team can offer extensions and get all of their prime-performance years which will be the key to this team having the Small-Market dynasty I believe they will have. Getting 3 of the aforementioned locked up surrounding Chourio for 7 years should get it done. Not concerned about the particulars on the pitchers because this team’s PDS will develop great pitching from among the 25 pitchers drafted in the last 2 years, plus what they add in next years draft with all their extra capital. Many will think we are wildly optimistic regarding the direction of this team, and their prospects, but we are not, this is where this thing is going. Having the best FO in the game matters, and the doubters are about to find this out.

    Stability — An underrated strength of the MKE Brewers with their coaching staff. Henderson-Hook-McKinven-Dawson-Theisen-LeBoeuf-Weeks-Murphy, even Charlie Greene have been with the organization for years and are familiar to all the players, even the young guys.
  4. SF70
    That should be a no brainer. 7 plus pitches between the two of them, 8, if and when Hall gets his FB back. Both are poised to have huge years.
  5. SF70
    Personally, i think the power will come at some point. Plus hit-tool players with his frame & EV are the exact type of players that can eventually get to that power.
  6. SF70
    Not seeing a future at 3B with this defensive-centric team so the power will need to come or I don’t see a future with this team.
  7. SF70
    Hall had a 70-grade FB back in 2023. His knee injury last year ruined his velo, and probably messed up his mechanics as well. This offseason he should spend strengthening the knee and spending time in the lab getting his mechanics ironed out. I’m hopeful the Hall our scouts saw pitching in ‘23, will be the pitcher we see next season.
  8. SF70
    1 hole, 3B, and 1 weakness, utility IF. I think we see both fixed with outside additions. 3B by trade (Suarez-McMahon-Bohm-One of Texas’s 3B), or FA (Moncada). Utiliy IF with IKF/DeJong/other. This is the strongest returning Brewers team I can remember for at least the last 14 years but probably longer.
  9. SF70
    For the first time in a long time the team will have real starting pitcher depth at AAA. Misiorowski (assuming)-Patrick-CRod-Henderson-Hunt-Smith then possibly 1 or even both of Ashby-Hall at times. Personally, I don’t see Smith as a starter long-term, same with Misiorowski, but certainly understand why the team wants to go the starter route with both given the team’s outrageous bullpen depth.
  10. SF70
    Payne stands out for me. Potential 5-tool talents that perform like he did at his age can’t be outside of the team’s top 5, imo. Didn’t take long for him to squash the picked him for underslot reasons narrative. Having numerous young prospects for the league is an underrated aspect of this team’s system.
  11. SF70
    Boeve isn’t really a 3B in an organization that values defense like we do, and Wilken, right now, seems more than a year away based on his abhorrent, lost season.
  12. SF70
    Pena, stands out for me. Should be a top 10 prospect at worst, and for me, inside the top 5. The tools scream top 5, even with the young age.
  13. SF70
    Small-market powerhouse.
  14. SF70
    The Brewers have the FO, infrastructure and 9 years of Chourio to become a SM powerhouse through the rest of this decade and beyond. They have the young core now to get to the postseason every year and the impact teenage talent and extra draft-capital to eventually have the best farm system in baseball that surrounds Chourio with star talent later this decade. No team in baseball has more potential for success than this organization does moving-forward.
  15. SF70
    Filling the teams only 2 weaknesses (3B & utility IF) internally isn’t going to happen. Dunn missed more than half the year with a bad back and if finally healthy, needs to prove himself at AAA first. Black is a poor IF defender and as such isn’t an option for this defense-centric team. Monasterio shouldn’t even be a utility option let alone get big-league reps at 3B. FA with Moncada & DeJong could fill both holes for a reasonable cost ($8M & $4M respectively is my estimate), or a trade acquisition like Suarez, Bohm or McMahon. The rest of the team is set, depth-wise. Maybe a trade of a Rea with a signing of a Lorenzen, but this team outside of 3B & utility IF doesn’t have any glaring holes or weaknesses.
  16. SF70
    A trade discussed on another board had Williams & Black to the Phillies for 2 years of Alec Bohm. Bohm was a 3+ WAR 3B last season with big improvements defensively. $8M arby would probably be tolerable. The 2 years buys time also for our prospects including Jesus Made. Phillies losing Estevez & Hoffman so Williams would likely appeal to them in another go for it season. Another option is Edmundo Sosa from the same team if they want to hold Bohm. Good fielder, 2+ WAR in limited action. Like Bohm, 2 more years of control.
  17. SF70
    Disagree that signing Haase wasn’t a hit, since he performed quite well in limited action and the team also has their backup catcher until Quero is ready. Outside of 3B and an upgrade at utility IF, I’m not seeing anything this team really needs upgrading. I think they let Hoby go and we might see a trade of Rea, although for his cost he gives the team an excellent depth starter/bulk innings pen arm. A Moncada and or DeJong signing, and or a trade for a 3B should be about it. Improvement should come as a whole with the continued development of their young players along with a pain free Yelich.
  18. SF70
    Nah, take the pick for our excellent domestic draft-department and move on. With Made-Pena-Pratt coming in 2-3 years and Boeve-Wilken possibly before then, the team just needs a 1-2 year stop-gap at 3B in order to stay the course with their mostly homegrown, lower payroll, financially-flexible roster moving forward. Ortiz should be an incredible defender at SS and with more experience, improve in the box and become a 4-5 WAR SS in his own right. Save the money and use it to extend the best and youngest of the special young talent (Quero?Made?Pratt?Pena?Payne?) currently stabled in our farm system.
  19. SF70
    Love the thought of adding draft-picks for this team’s domestic draft department, but the non-Williams relievers just don’t have much if any trade value. And the one that does, very likely isn’t desired by a comp A team. Detroit’s strength is their bullpen and besides they aren’t likely in go for it mode anyhow. Rea to Colorado makes no sense since Colorado also isn’t in go for it mode with 1 year of Rea. Of the 9 proposals, 2 are possibles, although Tampa is like MKE, likely trusting their draft -skill, and not wanting to part with the pick. So maybe the Civale/Bauer to KC?, KC traded away their comp to the Nats last trade-deadline for Hunter Harvey who promptly got injured so they might be a little gun shy of repeating.
  20. SF70
    Doesn’t bother me in the least if true. Go young, and stay young. Stay away from FA signings. The team has the infrastructure to furnish the team with young, controllable, impactful talent, and for as far as my eyes can see.

    2029 — Made at 3B, Pratt at SS, Pena at 2B, Bitonti at 1B, Chourio in CF, Anderson in LF, Payne in RF with Quero catching.
  23. SF70
    Nice to listen to non-Brewers fans that understand what those of us that follow the system as deeply as we do, know — “wave of freak shows coming” — “draft and IFA machine going”. Love it.
  24. SF70
    Not happening. Too good of a FO. Too good of a now rebuilt infrastructure. Too good of a young big-league core. Too good of prospect-procurement systems. Too many impactful teenage prospects stabled in our farm for when we will need them. I can keep going, but will stop there because I think you get the point I am making.
  25. SF70
    The SP depth on this team is the best I can ever remember. That will pay dividends over a long championship season. My preferred rotation: 1. Woodruff— I predict solid from the get go, improving to first game playoff starter. 2. Myers— From his arsenal to his elite tunneling to his command — could be a #2 next season. 3. Peralta— As good a 3rd starter as there is in the game. 4. Hall— Health and an offseason in the pitching lab. Needs innings. Team needs LHSP. 5. Ashby— Stuff is all the way back so this is where he belongs. 4 of the nastiest pitches in the game. Hoping he can add a 4-seam option he can throw up in the zone. 6. Civale— As good of a 5th/6th starter as there is 7. Rea— Great depth to have pitching bulk out of the pen. 8. CRod 9. Patrick 10. Henderson 11. minor-league signing They could also sign Miley on an incentive-laden deal for sometime in the second-half of the season. I think they go 6-man all season to protect their starters, especially Woodruff-Ashby-Hall-Myers. That is my optimistic take on this teams ‘25 rotation. There is no doubt in my mind they have the depth of quality starter arms to have a better rotation than what they had in ‘24, and with maybe the best bullpen they’ve had since late-season of ‘18, they will have the pitching to win a title.
